IndoxicateTaking the long viewHow bad would human extinction be? To my mind, it seems that it all depends on how it happens. It would be strange to think that we should prevent extinction at all costs—in part because extinction is inevitable.
There’s a useful parallel here with one’s own extinction, one’s future death. One’s death is inevitable, but it need not be something to dread or fear. Yes, death becomes troubling when it is unjust, avoidable, unnecessary, or untimely. But in a life, death is often not the worst thing that could happen. Life can be more ho...

Adrian Goldberg's Talk ShowThe Dark Heart of TrussonomicsIn conversation with Adrian Goldberg, Nafeez Ahmed explores the ideas circulating amongst some senior Conservatives including Prime Minister Liz Truss.
Nafeez identifies how Charles Murray, who promotes what Nafeez describes as "scientific racism", has been allowed a platform within the Tory mainstream.
Murray argues that some groups in society fare less well than others because they are genetically inferior to others - which leads him to radical economic prescriptions.
There's no suggestion that Truss herself or any of her ministers believes in or promotes eugenics, but some of the government’s thinking appears to be influenced by his work.

It often seems that different crises are competing to devastate civilization. The Crisis of Civilization argues that financial meltdown, environmental degradation, dwindling oil reserves, terrorism and food shortages need to be considered as part of the same ailing system.
